Stephanie will be a key contributor to any team she joins, and will always be learning to ensure she is delivering the best value possible.
I have known Stephanie since 1999 when I was building the Java Factory at Interface Systems. She quickly became a high-performer on the team, both as a software developer and as UX designer. Stephanie was invited to join our startup in 2001, Menlo Innovations, and became one of our first High-tech Anthropologists.
A geographic relocation took her away from us, the possibility of remote work during the pandemic brought her back. She rejoined Menlo and alternated between software development, High-Tech Anthropology and marketing.
She is a passionate contributor and brings her best self every day. She is a voracious reader and is always looking to be inspired by authors towards self-improvement and/or continuous improvement of the organization she is part of.
Whenever it is possible to include Stephanie on one of our project teams we always check to see if she is available.
While Stephanie was a valuable contributor as a software developer and worked well in our closely collaborative environment, her talents are even greater in studying the needs of users and designing software that will help them achieve their goals with ease.
Stephanie is a tremendous asset to any team. She’s reliable, hardworking and willing to roll her sleeves up and do anything to benefit the team or company.
Her empathy for users and passion for solving problems is evident in everything that she does. During her time at Menlo, Stephanie has conducted user observations and interviews to identify problems and opportunities for a variety of industries such as healthcare and transportation. She is able to quickly build trust and rapport with users allowing her to get the the root of the problem. Stakeholders look to her for insights and recommendations to inform their products. Both new team members and public tour attendees alike enjoy listening to Stephanie’s story telling as she shares her experience and knowledge around UX principles and strategies. Utilizing evaluative research techniques such as rapid prototyping and A/B testing, Stephanie is able to ensure solutions meet user needs in an intuitive way.
Her deep technical knowledge from her development experience only makes Stephanie an even more solid UX professional. Not only is she able to quickly earn the respect of the development team, but her technical skills allow her to easily break down design into agile requirements as well as collaborate closely with developers throughout implementation.
Stephanie is also a kind, caring team member who is passionate about accessibility and inclusion and is always looking for ways to refine processes and challenge our team to be the best we can be.
